You know I really enjoyed Burn My Eyes thanks to their drummer Chris Kontos. But I said weird cause the sang parts maybe, don't very like them. Rob, double kick, loud guitars are here for sure, The Blackening is worked and the band evolved since their debuts but something wrong IMO. It's not as violent as I was hoping.

Hey fellas...

New Pagan's Mind is a bit of a letdown, but new Benighted delivers.

Let's all hope the members of Decapitated pull through, but reports are that Vitek is in a coma with no signs of improvement after this week's tour bush crash.

Actually Decapitated signed with Nuclear Blast a week or so after Vitek's death so it appears they're going to forge ahead in his memory. We'll see if Covan makes a recovery. Apparently he is doing better.

The new Severe Torture is a good spin. Aside from that I've discovered bands like Vomitron (one man project out of Massachusetts) and rediscovered old favorites like Quo Vadis and Martyr. I'll tell you, the Montreal metal scene is one of the best in the world.

I saw Lamb of God and Killswitch Engage last night. It was a sweet show. The only thing was the lights went off during Lamb of God and they stopped playing in the middle of the song and waited to try to get them fixed. They said they weren't going to come back on any time soon so they continued to play with just the house lights and no spots. They were still amazing but it would have been cooler with the lights on.

Heaven Shall Burn album- Iconoclast is great! amazing album! loving it :D

Na i meant for gays lol. Emo is rubbish and shouldnt be mixed with metal at all. :p

Zomfg! I'm listening to alot of Coheed & Cambria, InMe and Paramore atm.

I'm expanding into electronic and more poppy/emo rock music from my metal roots.

I can't wait for Slayer's next album, which I read is to be their LAST! :o

Also Bodom's new album sounds to be quite good with Tie My Rope being kick-ass, although I've gone off the band quite a bit now.

This month, Alestorm's new album "Captain Morgan's Revenge" is out, and I suggest all folk/battle metal fans out there grab a copy.

I heard Burn My Eyes all the way through for the first time today, ****ing, why didn't I sooner! XD - MH FTW.

Damm been ages since last updated this topic, need it at the top guys :D Anyways what albums are everyone looking forward to this year?

To name a couple i'm looking forward to right off the top of my head:

Mercenary's new one titled "Architect of Lies". Since they're one of my favorites.

I'm also eager to hear Kalmah's new stuff that they've been recording recently.

Also Bodom's new album sounds to be quite good with Tie My Rope being kick-ass, although I've gone off the band quite a bit now.

Eh. That song isn't very good in my opinion.

This month, Alestorm's new album "Captain Morgan's Revenge" is out, and I suggest all folk/battle metal fans out there grab a copy.

Pssh. Alestorm is PIRATE METAL. Get it right.

Lol. XP

Seeing as how Kamelot, Behemoth, and Dimmu Borgir had all had recent releases, I can't think of anything I'm really anticipating as of now.

I'm waiting to see if Mushroomhead and Slipknot are going to release anything, though.

Ididn't even know Meshuggah was coming out with a new album. Definitely looking forward to that. Also the new Protest the Hero sounds promising. And I'm gonna have to say Metallica's new album, as bad as these guys were on their last effort I still hold a place in my heart for them. Oh, and I'm looking forward to some release by Misery Signals.

I'm waiting to see if Mushroomhead and Slipknot are going to release anything, though.

rumor has it Slipknot is currently working on a new album to be released late spring or early summer. that excites me :D

I have a coworker who is friends w/ mushroomhead. i'll ask her if theyre recording or something.

Therion needs to release their next album. Or someone needs to invent a time machine.

I remember hearing (I think it was on Wikipedia) that Johnsson said the next album will follow in the style of Gothic Kabbalah's finale track "Adulruna Rediviva."

I know better than to think they're releasing a whole album full of 14-minute epics of awesomeness, but still...DO WANT.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
